Breaking voice identity perception: Expressive voices are more confusable for listeners.
(2019-09)The human voice is a highly flexible instrument for self-expression, yet voice identity perception is largely studied using controlled speech recordings. Using two voice-sorting tasks with naturally varying stimuli, we ... -
The effects of high variability training on voice identity learning.
(Elsevier, 2019-07)High variability training has been shown to benefit the learning of new face identities. In three experiments, we investigated whether this is also the case for voice identity learning. In Experiment 1a, we contrasted high ... -
Flexible voices: Identity perception from variable vocal signals.
(2019-02)Human voices are extremely variable: The same person can sound very different depending on whether they are speaking, laughing, shouting or whispering. In order to successfully recognise someone from their voice, a listener ... -
How many voices did you hear? Natural variability disrupts identity perception from unfamiliar voices.
(2019-08)Our voices sound different depending on the context (laughing vs. talking to a child vs. giving a speech), making within-person variability an inherent feature of human voices. When perceiving speaker identities, listeners ... -
Impaired generalization of speaker identity in the perception of familiar and unfamiliar voices.
(2016-12)In 2 behavioral experiments, we explored how the extraction of identity-related information from familiar and unfamiliar voices is affected by naturally occurring vocal flexibility and variability, introduced by different ... -
The influence of perceived vocal traits on trusting behaviours in an economic game.
(2021-04-17)When presented with voices, we make rapid, automatic judgements of social traits such as trustworthiness-and such judgements are highly consistent across listeners. However, it remains unclear whether voice-based first ... -
Listeners form average-based representations of individual voice identities.
(2019-06-03)Models of voice perception propose that identities are encoded relative to an abstracted average or prototype. While there is some evidence for norm-based coding when learning to discriminate different voices, little is ... -
Similar representations of emotions across faces and voices.
